Why was this so big? Why did it make headlines for two weeks and even become a big enough case to get the man recalled from his position as Secretary General of Cosatu? By now you would think South Africans are used to reading or hearing about politicians or high profiled businssmen having extramarital affairs. Its common in South African politics, why is it then this story had so much hype and sensationalism around it? Could this have been a PR strategy by Vavi since there have been rumors of him starting his own political party in the near future or could this have been a strategy to draw eyes to himself for when he moves into parliament so that he does not go in without any loyal followers? These are the questions that emerge when reading about this story in the media or on social networks. Times have been tough for Vavi in the past couple of months he needed to make a move that could make or break him. This may have damaged his reputation or enough to expose those he says are out to get him which could be his step ladder up the food chain again.
Will never know what his alterior motive is,but this definetly ruined his reputation because we knew zweli as a humble and respected man
ReplyDeleteThe act is disgusting. He should be ashamed of himself
ReplyDeleteI agree I also knew him as a family man, humble and respected I also respected him but I guess everybody makes mistakes he is also human after all unfortunatly because of his public status we now have the right to judge him.
ReplyDeleteI have been following Vavis saga..I am not gonna lie what you just said i never thought about!i was just furious that why are they making a fuss cause its a common thing here in SA and Vavi is good at what his doing so HANDS OFF...well if its a PR strategy its damn good and i fell for it!I am one of his loyal fan. Fact is what he did is a private matter between him and his wife not the public.
ReplyDeleteThis is ridiculous.Vavi made his bed so now he must lay in it. He should do himself a favour and just step down.
ReplyDeleteim asking myself why people keep on saying he must step down? to tell the truth Vavi is nt wrong because if he was wrong the woman was not going to drop the charges and she was not going to demand money as well. even people can keep on saying that maybe bribe the woman to drop the charges, me as i woman i say that there is no money that can keep me silent for a rape. no one is perfect so the public must get out of the case and the families handle thise matter because even the woman was married.
ReplyDeleteHands off Vavi please Buyiswa!!!!!!!! He did not rape anyone, they were in a relationship, the only people they should be answering to are their families, because honestly speaking hey id nothing out of the ordinary.
